On CNN's New Day, Robert Hirschhorn, a jury-selection consultant, trying to refute Kyle Rittenhouse's claim of self-defense, says: "I’m sorry, no one ever died as a result of being hit by a skateboard. Now, you point a gun at somebody, you have the right to defend yourself. But being kicked or being hit, you don’t bring a gun to a fistfight. You don’t bring a gun when somebody is hitting you…

Was CNN watching the same trial the rest of America was? Apparently not, because the “Facts First” network abandoned truth for their politically convenient narrative on Friday, calling the Kyle Rittenhouse case an ultimate example of “white vigilantism.”

In the case of Kyle Rittenhouse, it's the second tough morning in a row for the liberal media, and good news for the defense. This morning, it was CNN's turn to be in the barrel. New Day tried to shift focus to what it described as the "bonkers" behavior of the trial judge, Bruce Schroeder. And repeated references were made to "criticism" that the judge had received. But the legal…

On Tuesday, one of Virginia Governor-elect Glenn Youngkin’s aides went on CNN to call out failed Democratic campaign tactics and to advise candidates to ignore mainstream media and Twitter. Will Ritter, who helped create many of Youngkin’s campaign ads, spoke to New Day co-host John Berman about strategies that worked for Youngkin and could be employed by Republicans in the 2022…

On Thursday, Senator Joe Manchin faced relentless blaming and badgering from CNN New Day co-host John Berman.  Manchin (D-WV), who described himself as “a responsible West Virginia Democrat…fiscally responsible and socially compassionate,” has received constant criticism from the left and its media allies for not falling in line to support President Biden’s exorbitantly expensive…

With the Virginia Gubernatorial election at stake, the media have resorted to flat-out lying to boost Democratic candidate Terry McAuliffe’s chances. TV journalists, anchors, and reporters are practically screaming at audiences that critical race theory is not taught anywhere in public schools, especially not in Virginia where it’s become a mobilizing issue for Republican voters. This is a lie…

CNN has no problem with vulgarities, crude gestures or violent threats directed at Republicans. But they will be outraged over a kid in a MAGA hat smirking or a crude joke being made about Joe Biden. 

Heaven forbid that "kooks" — you know, the kind of people who watch Fox News — will run for school boards! That was the message from CNN Thursday morning. New Day had on supposed "moderate" Michael Smerconish to discuss Attorney General Merrick Garlands's testimony before a Senate committee, and the memo he had sent to the FBI regarding threats of violence against school board members…

On Tuesday’s New Day, CNN’s John Avlon surprisingly stood up for free speech: even speech he doesn’t like. He was part of a discussion, along with fellow liberal Mara Schiavocampo, about Dave Chappelle’s new comedy special The Closer, which has faced intense pushback and outrage from the cancel culture mob, especially from Netflix employees who claim that some of Chappelle’s…

CNN’s morning show New Day spent two segments today whining about the anti-Biden “Let’s Go Brandon” joke trend often heard at sports stadiums across the country. Despite delighting in foul outbursts from Democrats about President Trump, CNN pretended to be bothered by expletives, because they were directed at a Democrat president.

For CNN, there's only one perspective on big government: bigger is better! On New Day, the hosts and panelists could only see the positives of a $1.7 trillion spending bill, and could only hope for more. The emphasis was on what people will be "getting." The notion was that it is up to government to address every supposed need. There are endless "crises" that the government must solve…

The liberals at CNN want you to believe that they care about upholding democracy, but the evidence shows that they turn a blind eye when it’s the Democrats rigging the system. On Thursday’s “Reality Check” on New Day, John Avlon dramatically proclaimed: “Defending democracy doesn’t take a day off.” He then went on to complain about Republican congressional redistricting while ignoring…

On Tuesday’s New Day, co-host John Berman cheered the woke rebranding of DC’s Superman, along with Reliable Sources host Brian Stelter. The two discussed the significance of DC superheroes such as Superman and Batman, acknowledging their place in America’s history as significant cultural figures. “I think they also represent something different in American history, and, and you know,…

CNN's New Day has on former George W. Bush speechwriter turned Washington Post columnist Michael Gerson, who encourages Republicans to vote for Democrats in the 2022 mid-term elections. Gerson claims it's the only way to get the GOP to change. Otherwise, he warns, Donald Trump is likely to win back the presidency in 2024 and use the powers of the federal government to punish his enemies and…
